Raw Phenological Data of Amphibian Life Stages in Virginia Vernal Pools - Journal of Herpetology Manuscript

This dataset summarizes monthly counts of eggs, larvae, and adults for four vernal pool amphibian species—the Jefferson Salamander, Spotted Salamander, Marbled Salamander, and Wood Frog. Collected by Virginia Master Naturalists, the data compares life-stage phenology between confirmed Jefferson Salamander sites and non-occupancy sites to support research on reproductive timing and species distribution in Virginia.

本数据集汇总了4种春季临时水塘（vernal pool）两栖动物的卵、幼虫及成体的月度统计数据，所涉物种包括杰斐逊钝口螈（Jefferson Salamander）、斑点钝口螈（Spotted Salamander）、云斑钝口螈（Marbled Salamander）与林蛙（Wood Frog）。该数据由弗吉尼亚自然大师志愿者团队采集，通过对比已确认存在杰斐逊钝口螈的样地与未占用样地的生活史物候特征，旨在为弗吉尼亚州内的繁殖时序与物种分布相关研究提供支持。
